          Damn. Two people having an adult, and respectful disagreement on the internet. I never thought I’d see the day.

          Great job both of you.

            I was curious because I saw this on my timeline and before I could even click the video to read the text on the video, it has downvotes and that turned me off, so I thought I’d find out why. Everyone was kind enough to explain, so I’m grateful.

      Title he puts “Linux Problems” but he wrote “My problems with linux” inside the video, my pov is kinda the opposite, a person with production machine should not expect to go full bleeding edge and just works… etc, lol; like other said the rest of my thoughts

      I didn’t downvote it, but I really didn’t like the video. It goes like “the things that are problems in Linux” and then starts talking about an extremely customized system, from DE to kernel, to audio…

      I don’t think he gets, in general at least, to explain why those are needed, just how complex it all is. It would have been more interesting to say “this are the problems with an out of the box distro, and the hurdles it took me go fix each one”.

      Mind you, this doesn’t mean I think a fresh install of Ubuntu can perfectly work for him. But knowing what didn’t work and why might be more helpful for people considering the same

        That’s really fair criticism. More YouTubers should take such an approach. Surely it’s nicer to see people supporting you rather than trying to stoke up fake outrage.

      I didn’t downvote but probably people won’t sit through a long video when the points he’s making could be a short list. At least give a summary.

        Summaries are definitely something that clients should be able to automate. It seems to be expected now.

        I gather they are or were associates / friends with bryan lunduke, who is an extremely controversial character in the Linux space. That might explain the “bit crazy” remark but I really don’t know much about the nature of their relationship

            Oh I see, appreciate the background.

            Yeah it was very sad to see the byran situation unfold. I was also a fan of that series.

        Yeah, it’s definitely the title. As someone with “Linux Problems” when it comes to music production, I completely understand Chris’s problems. But the title given here is nothing but bait.

      You are in an environment where the downvote button exists as a self-validation/relief method rather than flagging off-topic/unrelated/low-effort/etc content as “bad”.
